WHO  AM  I? 


I  am  a  searcher,  a  wanderer 
seeking  adventure, 

I  am  a  student, 
trying  to  find  myself. 

I  am  an  individual, 
distinct  from  all  others. 


I  AM  ME! 


1 


Every  adventure  has  a  setting 
a  iinique  place  where  our 
experiences  begin,  develop, 
grow  and  eventually  die  with 
vivid  memories  lingering  in 
our  mindo    As  we  travel 
through  our  adventure  we  see 
the  scenes  that  form  the 
setting  of  our  journey.  The 
scenes  we  see  ev^ry  day  are 
sometimes  the  scenes  we  take 
most  for  granted, 

PEACEFUL 
SETTING 


r*A  ROAD  TO  TRAVEL'" 


Like  a  person,  a  town — our 
town,  has  its  own  distinct 
personality,  its  own  small 
peculiarities,  its  own  character 
and  even  its  own  secrets. 
Sutton,  everyone  must  agree,  has 
its  quiet  moments  and  once  in  a 
while,  even  its  hectic  moments. 
It  stands  out  among  any  other 
town  in  its  individuality,

Inside  the  school,  they  seem 
so  reserved,  holding  as 
best  they  can  the  day's 
nerve-racking  frustrations 
until  the  long  awaited  moment 
arrives  when  they  put  on  their 
uniforms  and  their  personal 
adventure  begins.    They  are 
the  athletes — who  find 
excitement  during  the  field 
hockey  game,  on  the  soccer 
field,  in  the  gym  or  during 
the  basketball  game. 


•A  GOAL  ... 
A  BASKET... 
A  BASE  HIT— 


*A  PATH 


The  search  for  knowledge 
is  a  search  that  for 
many  of  us  will  never 
end.     In  our  school  there 
is  a  wide  variety  of 
courses  from  which  the 
student  may  choose. 
Among  us  are  our  future 
teachers,  writers, 
nurses,  secretaries — and 
who  knows  what  else?  The 
differences  among  us  make 
Sutton  High  School  the 
interesting  place  it  is. 
And  yet,  as  different  as 
we  may  be,  there  is  one 
thing  common  to  us  all — 


I  n 


cli  vidu  all 


Although  we  may  not  know  it,  one  of  the 
most  important  and  difficult  searches  we 
go  through  during  our  high  school 
adventure  is  the  search  for  individuality. 
How  do  we  express  ourselves?  Sometimes 
we  are  anxious  to  search  for  adventure; 
for  excitement,  or  for  the  unknown „  Even 
though  we  have  all  been  on  the  same  trip 
through  time,  our  roads  of  adventure  have 
branched  off  into  different  routes.

Good  for  you,  and  you  will  have  to  learn  them 

In  order  to  become  one  of  the  grown-ups. 

Who  sees  invisible  things  neither  steadily  nor  whole, 

But  keeps  gravely  the  grand  confusion  of  the  world 

Under  his  hat,  which  is  where  it  belongs, 

And  teaches  small  children  to  do  this  in  their  turn. 


Howard  Nemerov 


innovate... 

A  superintendent  is 
faced  with  meeting  the  con- 
stantly changing  needs  of 
students,  faculty  and  citizens 
of  the  town.     He  continually 
tries   to  find  ways  of  im- 
proving and  maintaining  the 
high  standards  of  the  school 
system  and  seeks  to  under- 
stand the  interests  of  each 
individual.     He  is  called 
upon  for  bobh  short  and  long- 
range  planning  and  is  always 
conscious  of  the  demands  of 
the  future. 


direct... 

Successfully  dealing 
with  over  three-hundred 
different  personalities 
is  a  challenge  which  faces 
a  principal  every  school 
day.    Accomplishing  this 
task  requires  a  variety  of 
personal  qualities  -  in- 
cluding leadership, 
patience  and  fairness. 
Each  day  produces  new 
situations  and  calls  for 
new  decisions  to  be  made.

lead... 

with  leadership 
comes  a  tremendous 
amount  of  involve- 
ment.    All  m.embers 
of  the  administra- 
tion are  directly 
and  earnestly  in- 
volved with  the 
many  activities  of 
students.  Whether 
it  be  directing  the 
school's  athletic 
program  or  helping 
a  student  with  a 
problem,  personal 
involvement  is  what 
makes  a  school  more 
than  just  a  school.

We  have  entered  high  school  without 
directions  and  the  Faculty  has 
helped  us  to  form  o\ir  goals,  by  being 
eaposed  to  many  varieties  of  subjects, 
we  have  begun  to  lean  towards  our 
interests  and  realize  what  we  dis- 
like. 


influence... 

During  our  years  in  various 
classrooms,  each  one  of  our 
teachers  has  shaped  us  in  some 
small  way.    They  help  us  to 
find  our  interests  and  lander- 
stand  what  used  to  appear  as 
strange.

Everyone  has  a  dream.  Whether 
it  be  a  defiziate  place  they'd 
like  to  go  or  something  they'd 
like  to  be.    £ven  if  its  only 
a  vague  picture  in  their  mind. 
But  for  each  person  this  dream 
is  different.    It's  something 
unique  to  themselves,  a  secret 
hope  inside  of  them  which  they 
guard  from  the  world. 

For  some  it  is  the  bri^t 
lights  of  the  city,  for  others 
a  romantic  sunset  on  the 
Pacific.    Still  others  may  long 
for  an  adventure  in  a  foreign 
country.    Whether  or  not  they 
will  achieve  these  dreams  is 
yet  an  xinanswered  question, 
!but  in  their  minds  their  hopes 
are  already  coming  true.

The  graduation  of  the 
starting  five  runners  for 
the  1976  cross  country 
team  was  costly  for  the 
Sutton  Harriers  this  past 
season.     However,   the  Har- 
riers did  manage  to  pick 
up  some  victories  and  wade 
through  their  losses  with 
some  respectable  scoring 
against  larger  school  sy- 
stems . 

Captain  Ronnie  Annis 
led  his  teammates  with 
five  First  Place  posi- 
tions,  four  Second  Place 
positions,   two  Third  and 
Fourth  Place  positions, 
and  one  Seventh  Place 
against  Bla cks tone-Mill- 
ville  Regional. 


John  Stratford,   Jim  Pelletier  and  fresh- 
man Leo  Perreault  combined  their  talents 
to  carry  the  rest  of  the  working  load,  de- 
monstrating solid  competitive  spirit  and 
team  effort.     All  three  will  be  returning. 
The  sho^^7ings  of  first  year  runner  Vincent 
Roy  suggests  good  growth  potential,  and 
with  improved  efforts  from  freshman  William 
Beaudette  and  Brian  Paine,   the  Sutton 
Harriers  will  be  back  on  the  scene  again 
next  year.

The  pesson's  opener 
was  a,  bit  of  a  turnarounrt 
with  Shepherd  Hill  defeat- 
ing Sutton.     'But  the 
Sammies  came  "back  strong 
with  a  first  ever  victory 
over  the  Northbridge  Rans. 
'The  team  ke])t  up  their 
winning  streak  to  tie  most 
consecutive  wins,   1 ?  in  a 
row  with  the  school's  1953 
team.     For  that  following 
game  on  ?eb.   3rd  the 
Sammies  met  those  blue 
r-aiders  from  Hopedale  for 
a  most  challenging  and 
then  most  disappointing 
game  . 

Sutton  finished  the 
'77- '78  season  winning  the 
last  4  games.     The  Sammiies 
then  became  the  Dual 
Valley  Champions  for  a 
second  year  in  a  row.

HOMORIMG 

THE 
ATHLETES 

In  May  of  1977 i  the  student 
athletes  at  Sutton  Hi^  School 
were  treated  to  a  banquet  at  the 
Driftwood  fiestiirant  in  Shrews- 
bury, Massachusetts.    Their  ded- 
ication and  long  hours  of  prac- 
tice in  the  gymnasium  or  on  the 
field  were  awarded  with  varsity 
letters  and  all-star  trophies. 

Also  honored  were  the  coaches 
and  parents  of  the  students  who 
donated  their  time  and  support 
during  the  long  seasons.  It 
was  obvious  by  the  impressive 
individual  and  team  records  re- 
ported by  the  coaches  that  Sut- 
ton sports  teams  had  become  a 
dominant  force  in  Dual  Valley 
League  competition.

Being  selected  as  a  member 
of  the  National  Honor  Society 
is  not  merely  an  indication 
that  a  student  has  achieved 
an  85  or  above  average  in  his 
last  three  years.     Of  course, 
academic  success  is  the  first 
criteria  for  membership  in 
the  Society,  but  a  student 
must  also  display  other  qual- 
ities. 

If  one  were  to  rur^  through 
the  list  of  Honor  Society 
members,  he  would  notice  that 
each  student  has  shown  strong 
character,  made  helpful  con- 
tributions to  his  school  and 
has  held  various  positions  of 
leadership.     Each  year,  a 
be.nquet  is  held  to  honor  the 
students  who  have  met  the  de- 
manding requirements  for  in- 
duction to  the  Society.

I  am  part  of  the  group  here  interacting  socially 
and  educationally  with  friends  and  teachers.  And 
yet,  I  stand  alone.  I  am  my  own  person,  thinking 
and  acting  for  myself,  expressing  my  feelings  and 
emotions,  having  my  own  likes  and  dislikes;  doing 
my  own  thing.

THINGS 

7  do  myself 


standing  in  the  rain 

V,Tiile  the  clouds  roll  by 

I  think  of  you, 

As  I  start  to  cry. 

People  rush  past, 

with  thoughts  of  their  own 

As  I  stand  here  confused 

by  the  love  that  you've  shown. 

I  see  my  reflection 

in  the  puddle  below 

There ' s  so  many  answers 

that  111  never  know. 

In  the  midst  of  the  city 

I  stand  here  staring 

and  in  spite  of  my  pain 

I  won't  stop  caring. 

And  even  though 

It'll  never  be 

I  can't  help  thinking 

of  you  and  me.

hefore  we  hid  adieu. . . 


Because  of  the  number 
of  people  who  have  contribu- 
ted to  our  senior  class,  we 
found  it  difficult  to  choose 
just  one  to  whom  we  could 
dedicate  our  yearbook.  And 
so  it  is tothese  special  people 
that  we  dedicate  Exitus  I976, 


..to  Mr,   and  Mrs.  Keegan  who  have  devoted 
many  hours  of  their  time  to  making  our 
yearbook  a  better  one. 

..to  Mrs.  Newton  \-^ho  in  her  12  years  at 
S.H.S.  has  contributed  greatly  to  the 
play,  humanities  and  in  many  other  areas. 
She  will  be  greatly  missed  by  both  students 
and  faculty. 

..to  Mr.  Grover  who  has  helped  us  prepare 
for  the  future  by  guiding  us  in  choosing 
a  college,  deciding  on  a  career,  or  just 
listening  to  our  many  problems  that  come 
un  o;.cl-.  day. 

..and  to  Mr.  Bjorn  (better  knoi^m  as  ''be  J.") 
who  has  given  so  much  time  and  effort  in 
the  past  four  years  to  our  class,   the  class 
of  1978. 


•  Class  History 


On  September  foui'th  in  the  year  nineteen  hundred  and  seventy-four,  stu- 
irits  entered  Sutton  HJgh  School  for  the  first  time  as  freshmen  -  all  novifcs 
'--Peking  to  overc.-C'me  the  tribulations  of  the  new  environment.  Exao  +  ly  three 
v^nrs,  -^iv^  months,  and  twenty-nine  days  later  we  have  emerged  victorious  te- 
."•Tuse  wc  h^ve  endu'^'ed.  We  shall  nov:  acheive  the  new  goals  we  h=)ve  set  in  our 
""■  •w  life. 

Entering  high  school  and  graduating  merely  mark  a  beginning  and  an  end- 
ing -  they  are  merely  boundaries  for  the  four  years  we  have  eyperienoed, 
""■t  is  within  these  boundaries  that  the  story  must  be  told  .   ,   .  . 

The  belief  that  freshm^^-n  are  slightly  confused  during  their  ■f'irst  year 
is  often  held  by  a  wide  variety  of  critics  ranging  from  upj^ercl assmen  to 
teachers,     The  truth  is,  there  was  a.  method  to  our  freshmen  madnes-.  First 
needed  class  o^f^r^icers  to  direct  the  course  of  our  opening  year.  Barbara 
'^■)rha"^ds  emerged  as  the  vic+-.or^ous  president  with  the  duty  of  trying  to  deal 
with  over  one  hundred  students  during  class  meetings  in  '*:Y<.e  gym.,  Cindy 
S'^ith  was  c!io.~en  as  vice-president  and  Laurie  Raad  won  the  position  of  class 
re^r'^+ary.     David  Gvazdauskas  had  the  dubious  honor  as  treasurer  to  collect 
dues  whioh  were  set  by  the  class  at  ten  dollars  -  a  record  in  Sutton's 
history  of  class  dues,     Kr.   Bur-ton  B.iorn  was  chosen  to  direct  our  activities 
as  our  class  advisor. 


Fortunately,  we  had  the  opportunity  to  engage  in  some  of  the  social 

ao+ivities  of  the  year.  Seve">"al   freshmen  took  part  in  the  April  play,  "flye 

By^  Pirdie"  with  some  of  the  Class  of  1978's  gifted  actors  m.aking  their 
debut  on  the  stage. 

One  of  our  first  attempts  to  make  some  money  for  our  class  was  ou-^-  show- 
ing of  the  Three  Stooges  film  to  an  audience  composed  of  appreciative 
'"hiidren  and  a  large  numt)er  of  Stooges  fans,     A  tradition  was  started  in  our 
freshmen  year  with  the  introdiiction  of  the  Semi-formal  Prom  which  was  held 
in  the  high  school  gym.     Featured  that  night  was  the  band  called   'Suite'  and 
the  theme  was  "Pieces  of  April."    Also  'firsts'  that  year  were  the  exchange 
concert  with  Foxboro  High  School  and  the  French  Cafe  during  I-fum.anities  Week, 
both  of  which  had  a  large  involvement  of  freshmen. 


107 


0\ir  sophomore  year  was  marked  "by  more  activities  and  a  greater  amount 
of  vitality  than  we  had  shown  during  our  hectic  freshmen  year.    Once  again, 
class  officers  had  to  be  chosen  and  the  close  races  kicked  off  the  long  year. 
David  Gvazdauskas  took  over  the  helm  as  president,  a  position  he  would  hold 
for  the  next  three  years.    Also  elected  were  Andrew  Mosher,  Wendy  Goodwin 
and  Kim  Broberg  to  perform  the  many  duties  demanded  of  class  officers. 

What  would  a  school  year  be  without  a  record  hop?    In  December,  we 
sponsored  our  first  of  several  dances  and  had  the  gymnasium  walls  pulsat- 
ing with  the  top  40  hits.    This  was  also  the  year  that  the  famous  recording 
artists  'Rhythm*  stopped  by  at  Sutton  High  to  delight  the  students  with 
their  exciting  show, 

A  switch  from  the  usual  musical  plays  put  on  by  S,H.S.  students,  "You 
Can't  Take  it  With  You"  was  staged  by  our  local  group  of  actors.  There 
were  several  budding  stars  from  the  Class  of  1978  featured  in  the  play  in- 
cluding Sean  O'Shea,  Martin  Linder,  Denise  Lavoie,  Bonnie  Brigham  and 
Barbara  Richards. 

Again,  the  Semi-formal  Prom  was  held  in  the  beautifully  decorated  high 
school  gym  with  the  theme  'Color  My  World. '    Featured  in  that  spring  affair 
was  a  band  by  the  name  of  'Sweet  Dream'  who  helped  contribute  to  a  memorable 
evening.    For  those  of  us  who  were  fortunate  enough  to  be  invited  by  an 
upperclassmen  to  the  Junior-Senior  Prom,  the  Hogan  Center  at  Holy  Cross 
College  was  the  scene  and  'Sounds  Unlimited'  supplied  the  music  on  May  14, 
1976, 

Other  events  during  our  sophomore  year  which  shouldn't  be  left  out  of 
our  history  are  the  entertaining  evening  called  'Family  Night  At  the  Pops', 
the  visits  of  the  well-liked  Navy  Jazz  Band  and  the  talented  Wyoming  Seminary 
Madregal  Singers  to  Sutton  High  School,    Humanities  Day  accented  the  spring 
season  with  a  wide  array  of  entertainment  ranging  from  softball  games  to 
band  concerts.    Our  class  contributed  to  this  effort  by  operating  a  Sno- 
Cone  stand  with  the  syrup  being  slopped  on  everything  but  the  cones. 

The  early  part  of  our  junior  year  was  highlighted  with  the  harrowing 
experiences  in  the  driver  education  program.    Let  it  be  known,  however, 
that  no  one  in  our  class  put  even  one  scratch  in  the  new  Plymouth  Volare 
student  driver  car  (although  inches  sometimes  separated  us  from  disaster)! 


Another  event  that  arrives  with  the  junior  year  is  the  honor  of  being 
inducted  into  the  National  Honor  Society.    This  distinction  was  bestowed  on 
ten  juniors  -  Linda  Chase,  Bonnie  Dawicki,  David  Gvazdauskas,  Diane  Harting, 
Dawn  Curtis,  Raymond  Turgeon,  Donna  Perry,  Karen  Swart,  Theresa  Sardagnola 
and  Karen  Whittier.    All  the  students  were  congratulated  by  National  Honor 
Society  advisor  Mr.  Paul  Laraontagne  and  Super in tendant  Gordon  Spence.

We  were  the  first  class  in  several  years  at  Sutton  High  School  to 
sponsor  a  dance  featuring  a  live  band  -  the  infamous  'Predd  Soxx',  They 
rocked  the  walls  of  the  gym  and  the  large  crowd  helped  boost  our  treasury  to 
a  very  generous  level.    The  school  newspaper,  The  Advocator,  was  run  by  our 
class  with  the  helpful  assistance  of  Advisor  Judith  Murin  and  the  paper 
gained  a  second  place  award  in  the  Worcester  County  Student  Journalism 
Competition, 

For  many  of  us,  the  first  of  several  standardized  college  board  tests 
was  the  Preliminary  Scholastic  Aptitude  Test  (PSAT)  taken  in  October.  Later, 
in  June,  many  college-bound  students  took  the  SAT*s  and  became  committed 
to  the  adventure  that  was  to  continue  until  early  spring  of  o\ar  senior  year. 

The  Drama  Club  returned  to  the  musical  play  when  it  presented  "The 
Boyfriend"  for  a  three  night  performance  in  April.    Again  the  veteran  actor 
Sean  0*Shea  along  with  Dawn  Curtis,  Cindy  Smith  and  Wendy  Goodwin  performed 
in  a  professional  way  and  their  efforts  contributed  to  a  most  successful 
production. 

The  Junior-Senior  Prom  was  again  held  "at  the  Hogan  Center  at  Holy  Cross 
College  and  the  couples  were  entertained  by  'Sounds  Unlimited'  featuring 
Sutton's  music  direcor  Richard  Holland.     'Evergreen*  was  the  theme  of  the 
prom. 


On  May  27,  1977 t  the  class  ahead  of  us  graduated  which  left  us  the 
honor  of  being  the  new  senior  class. 

Our  senior  year  left  us  the  roost  memories  of  all  our  years  at  Sutton 
High  School.  And  the  history  of  our  senior  year  lies  within  these  pages, 
making  unique  the  class  of  19781
